Since I started this thread, it's been driving me crazy where I first saw the glass since I knew it was in online video by Robert Hess from 'The Cocktail Spirit' and he has dozens out there... I finally found it (in the opening credits!). here's a capture. Like i was saying, at the thrift store nearest my office, there's a whole entire shelf of this exact shape and style of glass, but the diameter is only about 1/2 to 2/3 the size of this. They're clearly made for sipping some sort of aperitif of something, whereas these are full on cocktail size.

I do think you pegged the period correctly as they look very retro and I was thinking probably 50s or 60s.. I think this glass looks absolutely amazing.
